Oh Those Famous Red Soles....

Good day folks!

It's just coming to the end of Easter Sunday here, and hope everyone had a wonderful rest and blessed holiday!

Ladies, you will want to look into this tip seriously. Gents, if you want to make your ladies happy (and I mean, *really* happy!), you need to look into this too!

Christian Louboutin has an online shoe store right here http://us.christianlouboutin.com/, and prices can be up to SGD200 cheaper than what it costs to buy in Singapore. When you're talking an average of SGD 1,000++ for a pair, that's about 20% savings! Not to mention you also get a really wide selection compared to what's stocked in the boutiques.

Common reviews of Louboutin tell us that they seem to run small, so you may want to order a half-size up from what you usually wear.

Your US Private Shopper is a super-fast shipper, so you can start enjoying your new shoes in about 2 weeks from the time you place your order!

Now that you're in on the secret, go forth and shop! Then let us know your selection at your.us.shopper@gmail.com. Have a wonderful day everyone :-)

Best regards

Golf Day... (And Tennis Too...)

Hola everybody!

It's Easter Sunday, and hope everyone had a wonderful and blessed long weekend. I've been hearing about the searing heat in Singapore, and it's only April! We've been seeing a different kind of searing heat in Texas, but it's more related to uncontrollable wildfires rather than the sun.

I'm sure some of you took the opportunity this weekend to get in a few rounds on the green. I wanted to share with you golf aficionados about a great place to get your golf gear here in the US, and there's something for everyone, whether you are a guy or a girl!

Golfsmith is the world's largest golf superstore for golf clubs, golf equipment, accessories etc. You get everything from the high-end for the aspiring pro, to beginners' gear for those just starting out.

The thing I really like about Golfsmith is that it also carries a fantastic selection of ladies' golf gear and equipment. Here, the ladies are not just an afterthought. There is actually an entire selection of clubs, shoes, accessories and fashion dedicated to women golfers.

If you are starting your kids on golf, you can also look up their Junior section, with a full range of sets, apparel and gear.

Last but not least, it is also the place to find your golf stuff if your needs are a little out of the ordinary, say you need size 14 shoes, or you are lefthanded. This is where you find it all!

Golfsmith also has a Tennis section catering to those who prefer racquets to clubs. And from their latest ad, the summer selection of Adidas and Nike tennis apparel have just come arrived!
Check out http://www.golfsmith.com/ps/ and if you find something you fancy, you know who to call! We are always at your service at your.us.shopper@gmail.com . Have fun everyone!

Tumi - Arm Candy For The Boys

Howdy everyone,

Hope everyone is having a wonderful long Easter weekend. :-) We've talked quite a bit about girls' stuff, and we'd like to shift our focus a little bit to something for the boys.

Among so many brands for luggage/bags, Tumi seems to strike the loudest chord among the many guy friends and coworkers I know. Though the boys don't discuss their arm candy as much as the girls do, I've seen admiring and envious glances when a handsome Tumi rollerbag goes past. I suspect Tumi is to the gentlemen what Louis Vuitton is to the ladies.

Compared with prices in Asia, Tumi is definitely a great buy in the US. Even after adding the international shipping charges, the bags and accessories usually turn out cheaper than in Asia. Clients have also shared that the range we get in the US is substantially wider than the stores in Asia.

So folks, if you have your eye on a particular piece, we are standing by to help you with it! Drop us a line at your.us.shopper@gmail.com :-)
